Assuming that your bases were corrupted because Windows had not
written its cached image of your files to disk when the PC died, you
could perhaps disable "write caching" on the external drive?
It's under the disk's properties, then Hardware->Properties->Policies.

This will ensure that writes are committed immediately to disk. It's
supposed to reduce performance, but I've never noticed any impact when
I use it on my second *data* drive.
